WorkingDir parameter

Hi everyone -
          I'm using the workingDir parameter (specified as a relative path) ,
          and things are working fine, except when I move my application to a
          different domain on the same machine.
          For example - we have two domains on the same machine - development
          and staging:
          /usr/prop/weblogic6.1/config/development
          /usr/prop/weblogic6.1/config/staging
          now, currently If I put an entry in my weblogic.xml such as :
          <workingDir>./saved_jsps</workingDir> -
          Then all jsp's will be saved to /usr/prop/weblogic6.1/saved_jsps -
          even though they are from two different domains. This could cause
          problems, and BEA's recommended approach is to change the deployment
          descriptor when migrating between domains.
          Has anyone run into this problem? Any creative solutions?
          Thanks in advance,
          Scott

Hi,
          (Serious question..) Can you explain why you're using the workingDir
          parameter? Why not just leave it as the default? What are the advantages to
          changing it?
          Thanks,
          Alex

Deploying WAR file gets error

Hi,
I am new to weblogic and am trying to deploy jsps and servlets. This is my directory structure:
MiniEjbs --> src, build, myapp dirs
src ---->CalculateHOme,Calculate,CalculateBean. java files
build----> src ----> ejb's class files
----> META-INF-----> *.xml (for ejb)
--->MiniEjb.jar,Miniwebapps.war
myapp--->WEB-INF--->*.xml(web)
--->class---> accessServlet.class
---> calc_num.jsp
when I deploy the war file using console I get an error
J2EE:160043]Missing deployment descriptor "WEB-INF/web.xml"at "C:\bea\user_projects\domains\AnilRukkuDomain\AnilRukku\upload\Miniwebapp.war"
I created a new domain AnilRukkuDomain,but all my ejbs and client apps are in C:\MiniEjbs dir.Is this a problem for my deployment? After I deploy would my context root be myapp or do I set that explicitly? My ejbs are deployed without any problem.Will my application run if I create seperate modules and deploy individually?Is it mandatory for me to create an application?
Kindly help me out with this. I appreciate your help.
Thanks,
Rukmini

Hello,
Could you check weblogic.xml?
Specifically the element jsp-descriptors.
For example:
One can receive the same error if weblogic.xml had specified workingDir to a non-existent directory i.e d:\foo.
The problem was that the weblogic.xml specified a non-existent directory for "workingDir" parameter for jsp-descriptor. Check once weblogic.xml especially <jsp-descriptor>.
<jsp-descriptor>
<jsp-param>
<param-name>compileCommand</param-name>
<param-value>javac</param-value>
</jsp-param>
<jsp-param>
<param-name>workingDir</param-name>
<param-value>d:\foo</param-value>
</jsp-param>
<jsp-param>
<param-name>keepgenerated</param-name>
<param-value>true</param-value>
</jsp-param>
Try to comment any elements in weblogic.xml that is either not used or redundant.
There is one CR also filed for prabably similar issue. You can get more informaiton about CR200819 from bea support.

Pre-compiled JSPs when deploying an EAR under WebLogic 6.1 SP4

Hello,
We have sucessfully pre-compiled JSP pages when working with and
deploying WAR files (WebLogic 6.1 SP4, Windows).
However, we can't seem to make it work when deploying EAR files.
Examing the "secret" unpacked directories after deployment doesn't
seem to help.
If we extract the WAR from the EAR and deploy it, everything is perfect.
Any ideas? Anyone able to make this work? If so, could you share the
output of
jar -tf yourCoolEarFileThatWorks.ear
as well as the same for the embedded WAR file?
Thank you,
Mike Leo

Some followup information.
We've changed the place where it looks for JSP classes using the
"workingDir" parameter in weblogic.xml.
And we also set "pageCheckSeconds" (also in weblogic.xml) to "-1".
Now, everything in the base directory comes up without being recompiled.
However, nothing in subfolders of the base directory is "picked up". Those
pages are still being compiled when they are accessed.
Any ideas welcome.

Keeping Generate JSP Servlet Source

          I want to keep the servlet source code generated by WL when compiling JSPs. In
          our development environment we generate servlets on demand (we don't precompile
          in ANT -- there are too many JSPs for that).
          Elsewhere in this newsgroup I found a message that suggested adding this to the
          web.xml file:
          <context-param>
               <param-name>weblogic.jsp.keepgenerated</param-name>
               <param-value>true</param-value>
          </context-param>
          However, this seems to only keep the .class file, not the .java file. Unless I
          am looking in the wrong place, WL isn't keeping the generated servlet source.
          Does anyone know if/how this can be done?
          Thanks.

          WebLogic creates temporary directory something like:
          D:\WebApp\WEB-INF\_tmp_war_WLS6server_WLS6server_WebApp\jsp_servlet
          where it stores .java files (JSP files transformed into servlets before

How to get Workshop to ?keepgenerated? JSP source?

Hi,
Has anyone figured out how to get Workshop to “keepgenerated” JSP source? In WEB-INF,
the file wldynamic_change_list.properties, has a jspKeepGenerated=true setting,
but I can’t find where it’s putting the JSP classes or java files.
Also, I've verified this is in my weblogic.xml..
<jsp-param>
<param-name>keepgenerated</param-name>
<param-value>true</param-value>
</jsp-param>

Phil,
One of the main disadvantages of not using the built in JSP compiler is that
you will not be able to debug the JSP. If you need to debug your JSP, please
use the IDE to build the project, or right click the JSP and choose 'run
JSP'.

Anurag,
Thanks for the quick reply. I did as you instructed and found that itprovides
a workaround, but the solution is not optimal. It does not change the JSPcompiler
used by Workshop during a "build". It only changes the JSP compiler usedby the
server to compile a JSP that has changed. So, you must "touch" the JSPfile (but
not do a WLW build) then "hit" the JSP with the browser to cause theserver to
recompile the JSP. Only then will there be a ".java" file saved.
This will have to do, but it would sure be nice if WLW could provide thissimple
capability.

Phil,
A webservices or web project developed in Workshop by default uses a
Workshop specific JSP compiler as can be seen in the default weblogic.xml
file:
<jsp-descriptor>
Comment the jspServlet param out to go back to weblogic's jspc
<jsp-param>
<param-name>jspServlet</param-name>
<param-value>weblogic.servlet.WlwJSPServlet</param-value>
</jsp-param>
The "keepgenerated" option is not supported by the Workshop JSP compiler.
You need to use the default WebLogic JSP compiler to do that.
As the comment above states, you can do that by commenting out the
<jspServlet> parameter. The java file is by default generated in the
<server-domain-dir>/<server-name>/.wlnotdelete/extract/<serer-name>_<webappn
ame>/jsp_servlet/
directory. This can be changed by specifying the desired location in
the
<workingDir> parameter.

Workshop has its own JSP compiler.
I will check on the keepgenerated option and get back to you.

Logical AND in MDX Reporting Services Parameter

Hi, I would like to implement logical AND on a cube parameter. I have seen examples of hard-coded logical AND in MDX.
(http://salvoz.com/blog/2013/12/24/mdx-implementing-logical-and-on-members-of-the-same-hierarchy/)
But I'm not sure how to apply this to a parameter's MDX dataset.
Here is an example of the automatically generated MDX which uses logical OR:
This is the drop down parameter:
WITH MEMBER [Measures].[ParameterCaption] AS [Department].[Department].CURRENTMEMBER.MEMBER_CAPTION MEMBER
[Measures].[ParameterValue] AS
[Department].[Department].CURRENTMEMBER.UNIQUENAME MEMBER [Measures].[ParameterLevel] AS
[Department].[Department].CURRENTMEMBER.LEVEL.ORDINAL
SELECT {[Measures].[ParameterCaption], [Measures].[ParameterValue],
[Measures].[ParameterLevel]} ON COLUMNS
, [Department].[Department].ALLMEMBERS ON ROWS
FROM [MyCube]
And the demo report dataset is:
SELECT NON EMPTY { [Measures].[CompanyTbl Count] } ON COLUMNS,
NON EMPTY { ([Product Level No].[Product Level No].[Product Level No].ALLMEMBERS ) }
DIMENSION PROPERTIES MEMBER_CAPTION, MEMBER_UNIQUE_NAME ON ROWS FROM
( SELECT ( STRTOSET(@DepartmentDepartment, CONSTRAINED) )
ON COLUMNS FROM [MyCube]) WHERE
( IIF( STRTOSET(@DepartmentDepartment, CONSTRAINED).Count = 1,
STRTOSET(@DepartmentDepartment, CONSTRAINED), [Department].[Department].currentmember ) )
CELL PROPERTIES VALUE,
BACK_COLOR, FORE_COLOR, FORMATTED_VALUE, FORMAT_STRING,
FONT_NAME, FONT_SIZE, FONT_FLAGS

Hi,
I can see there just one parameter @Department@Department in your script. But if you had two parameters that should return resultset affected by two parameters. You can do it as either select from subselect from subselect.
Example 1
SELECT
{x} ON COLUMNS,
{ROWS_SET} ON ROWS
FROM
(SELECT StrToSet(@Param1) ON COLUMNS FROM
(SELECT StrToSet(@Param2) ON COLUMNS FROM
[CUBE_NAME]
Or crossjoin between 2 parameters
SELECT
{x} ON COLUMNS,
{ROWS_SET} ON ROWS
FROM
(SELECT StrToSet(@Param1)*StrToSet(@Param2) ON COLUMNS FROM
[CUBE_NAME]

Report RFKLBU10: Missing Parameter for Logical filename in Release ERP 2005

Hello Experts,

There are no Export or Print events accessible for the viewer
Since it sounds like you are creating the reportdocument object in your click event, the settings on this object become out of scope on successive postbacks executed by other events.
to get around this without major changes, you can place your "report" object in session in this event and retrieve it from session on successive postbacks. This should solve your problems around navigation, printing and exporting. What you will need to do is check if the session object exists (usually in page_load or page_initialze) and if so, retrieve it from session and bind it to the viewer's reportsource. If the session object does not exist, then do nothing (ie you have not clicked your button yet that retrieves the parameter values from session and loads the report). Also, in your click event you can check if the report session object exists and if so, remove it so that it can be re-created with your new parameter values (ie i'm assuming the only time you want to set parameter values is in this event).

Replacing NULL and EmptyString('') with "Unknown" in SSRS parameter dropdown

All,
What I want to do is, in the SSRS parameter drop down, instead of showing NULL and Blank values(), i want to categorize them as "Unknown", so, if the user selects "Unknown" from the SSRS drop down parameter, he should be able to see all
the records that have NULL values or empty strings in that particular column in the result set.
Can you tell me, how should I handle it in my main stored proc as well as in the dataset?
Right now, i have something like this:
Where
(t1.name in (select value from dbo.Split(@TName,',')) OR @TName IN ('All'))
-- Where t1.Name has empty strings and NULL values. Both of these values should be categorized under "Unknown"
-- How would the dataset query look like? Right now I have this query for populating the drop down for that parameter:
Select All
UNION
Select Distinct Name
Order BY 1

Hello,
Please refer to the following stored procedure:
SELECT
CASE WHEN TName IS NULL OR TName = ''
THEN 'Unknown' ELSE TName END AS TName
From DemoTable
Then, use following query code to get the parameter values:
SELECT Distinct
CASE WHEN TName IS NULL OR TName = '' THEN 'Unknown'
ELSE TName END AS TName
FROM DemoTable

Host parameter null and convert SOAP to HTTPUrl

Hi,
We are trying to fire a SOAP request and print the response but its throwing this error
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: host parameter is null
The piece of code is:
HttpClient hc = new HttpClient();
System.out.println("Came here");
int iResultCode = hc.executeMethod(post);
executeMethod(post) is failing but when I print the value of post, its �org.apache.commons.httpclient.methods.PostMethod@fd54d6�
Can anybody throw some light on this error and how to solve it??
Also, there�s another issue.
We are upgrading from Weblogic 7.2 to 9.1
Earlier we were able to pass the request and get the response in HTTPUrl form but now after upgrading, its getting passed in SOAP format. Is there any way to bypass the SOAP and get it in HTTPUrl format or what are the configurations to be made to adapt to the SOAP format?
connection =(HttpURLConnection) url.openConnection();
This line was returning HTTPUrl format, now its coming in SOAP format

your PostMethod takes the Url as the parameter. Check you are using the proper URl i.e like http://host:port/name?params like that

SOURCE_PACKAGE is INCOMPATIBLE with the FORMAL PARAMETER DATA_PACKAGE

Hello Experts,
Infocube A is getting updated from shopping carts DSO. I have added 3 new fields in SC DSO then cube transformations got inactive. I do not want 3 new fields in cube. we have report on DSO. Below is syntax error when checking transformations.
Error: In PERFORM or CALL FUNCTION "ROUTINE_9998", the actual parameter "SOURCE_PACKAGE" is incompatible with the formal parameter "DATA_PACKAGE".
3 New fields are available in tys_SC_1 but not available in tys_SC_1_full. I tried to insert 3 fields in tys_SC_1_full but still it is showing same syntax error. And more TYPE is availalbe tys_TG_1_full. This type does not have 3 fields.
Please advice.
Thanks in advance.
Regards
Venkata.

SSRS 2012: How to get a "Select All" that returns NULL instead of an actual list of all values from a multi-select parameter?

I have a multi-select parameter that can have a list of thousands of entries. In general, the user will pick a few entries from the list or "Select All". If they check "Select All", I would much prefer that I get a NULL or an empty string
instead of a list of all values. Is there any way to do that?
In experimenting with a work-around, I tried putting an "All" label with a null value in the list, but it is ignored (does not display in the drop-down). If I use an empty string for the value, my "All" entry does get displayed, but so
does "Select All", which is confusing. Is there a way to suppress "Select All"?
- Mark

I adapted the following from a workaround posted by JNeo on 4/16/2010 at 11:14 AM at
http://connect.microsoft.com/SQLServer/feedback/details/249227/multi-value-select-all-parameter-in-reporting-services
To get a null value instead of the full list of all values when "Select All" is chosen:
1) Add a multi-value parameter "MyParam" that lists the values to choose.
2) Add a DataSet "ParamCount" identical to the one used by "MyParam", except that it returns a single column named [Count] that is a COUNT(*) of the same data
3) Add a parameter "MyParamCount", set it to hidden and internal, then set the default value to 'Get values from a query', choosing "ParamCount" for the Dataset and the one [Count] column for the Value field.
4) Change the parameter for the main report DataSet so that instead of using [@MyParam], it uses this expression:
=IIF(Parameters!MyParam.Count =
Parameters!ParamCount.Value, Nothing, Join(Parameters!MyParam.Value, ","))

WorkingDir parameter
